Bicton College students get pat on the back for smelly Children in Need fundraiser

Bicton College students created an innovative Children in Need fundraiser involving a cow last Friday.

The Sport and Outdoor Adventure students placed a cow in a pen on the lawn in front of Bicton House and then sold numbered pieces of wood to staff and students to place around the pen in the hope of marking the spot where Denis the cow would place her donation!

Outdoor Adventure tutor Ingrid Reynolds said: “Unfortunately the pressure to perform got to Denis who failed to deliver in the allotted time so we had to give a time limit and then pick the log nearest to where Denis was standing.”

Winning contestant was Equine lecturer Nicky Craven. Bicton College students raised £100 towards the Children in Need appeal.
